For example, the guy that developed the bendy straw or Velcro or the zipper or your fireman hose &#8211; is it a bit more than just a good idea?<\/p>\n<p>David. I\u2019m so glad you said that Ingrid, because yes, I think it is. You could have the most brilliant idea in the world and make nothing from it, or you could have an idea that\u2019s just good \u2013 it\u2019s not brilliant like velcro, but it\u2019s a good idea, people need it \u2013 and you feel passionate about it and you can actually really make some money from that and make a living for yourself. So, no, an idea alone is not what\u2019s going to do it. You need some passion behind it. It does need to be a good idea that the world needs right now. You don\u2019t want to do something that\u2019s already being done, unless you can do it better. I think you need to start creating some systems for the business. It\u2019s also really going to help to have a partner who\u2019s got some experience in this. Take on a business partner, or get yourself to a really good accountant or business advisor or business coach who can help you with it.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>The following is an excerpt of David\u2019s interview in Top Coaching Techniques.
